15.
ARIZONA (2-1) AT #10 UTAH (4-0) -11

The starting QB for UNLV just quit the team over his NIL deal. So that game is out.
Try this instead.
NORTHERN ILLINOIS (2-1) AT NORTH CAROLINA STATE (2-2) -6.5
wolfpack is just 1-5-1 ats after playing clemson, and is missing its starting qb. w/niu 4-1 ats as road dogs, and 7-2-1 ats vs acc opponents, huskies are the right dog for me.
